>Hard to classify. Is it a sound that just sort of blends into several genres you mean?
yeah, mostly because in the internet age, with so much information and independent music out there in bandcamp, soundcloud or any platform that allows you to post any musical idea/production without needing to sign a contract in a big record company, you get pretty varied results and thus, it seems that the amount of new subgenres are being shaped these days. However, that amount of fans is limited and between so many artists, you don´t know what to reference nor what bands you can hold onto for describing what you are listening to, therefore, I have to rely on the most famous bands that are widely known, both on the internet and/or in the industry.

My biggest problem that arose yesterday was that while it was known territory (because the music sounds intimate, meant to be listened in the bedroom), I was somewhat frustrated that for describing a complex song of 13 minutes for example, I manage to tag that piece as prog rock and nail it while describing a monotone song with steady drums, I struggle to classify that less complex composition when it comes to its tags. In other words, listening to it directly is more useful than trying to give an idea of it with the tags.

Still, I am now perfectly convinced that this can be tagged as post rock (why is it the first wave explicitly? I´ll explain that later) and as an ambient pop record.

>I knew ya would be.
perhaps it might due to me sharing Slowdive over here because that band isn´t simply dreamy but they also have a post rock record as well in their catalog (Blue Skied ´n Clear´s album). So, you would figure out that laid back melodies intended for private environment would fit to my liking...and turns out that it was. Although it was CB anon who shared this in this thread >>6337. I wonder if he posted that just to cause an impression like this or if he left it just because he felt like it at that time without expecting anything in exchange.
